How to make Cinamon Apple Casserole
Nothing makes me happier than an easy cinnamon apple casserole in the morning and a crowd being satisfied and spoiled. I like to make many varieties of casseroles in the morning, they sound hard, but if you try, you will get convinced how easy they are made and how tasty they are. Once topped with some vanilla ice cream or whipped cream, this dessert takes another level of indulgence. Easy, simple, and super tasty.
First of all, we have to caramelize the apples. Choose slightly sweet, not overpowering, and sugary apples. So, wash, clean, and pat dry apples. Peel, core, and chop them. Squeeze some lemon juice to prevent from browning. In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add chopped apples and cook, constantly stirring, until tender, for about 7 minutes. Add in brown sugar and ground cinnamon. Gently mix ingredients and cook for 5 minutes more until the sugar has dissolved. Set aside to cool.
Preheat the oven to 350° F.
Grease a baking dish with butter. In a baking dish, arrange a layer of bread cubes, then top with half of the apple mixture in an even layer. Spread the cream cheese evenly on the top. Repeat one more layer.
In a large mixing bowl, beat together eggs, milk, maple syrup, vanilla, salt, and ground cinnamon. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the casserole. Sprinkle with almond flakes generously.
Send cinnamon apple casserole to the oven for 45 minutes. Bake until golden brown and the center is firm.
Serve cinnamon apple casserole topped with vanilla ice cream.
